SIREN was an uncompromising and passionate outfit who challenged the corporate invasion and buy-out of the punk scene, as well as the unquestioned triumph of technology at the expense of community and respect for the planet.

The band promoted sharing resources, and demonstrated this by making complimentary peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for audiences at each show, and selling band shirts for no more than $3. They adhered to only playing all-ages venues and supported $5 shows.
